Wisconsin winter wheat disease update for June 19

Damon L. Smith, Extension Field Crops Pathologist, University of Wisconsin

I have scouted winter wheat fields and variety trials from Arlington
Wisconsin up through Chilton Wisconsin this week, between rain showers.
Wheat in these areas is nearly finished flowering. The window of
opportunity to spray fungicides in these areas to control Fusarium head
blight (scab) in winter wheat has now passed. No rust or head scab yet,
Ceph stripe observed.
